The advanced analytic software give access to a wide range of information which may be used for quality optimization purposes. Bar details are presented in the data tables to the right of the images. Typical data displayed includes the Bar ID, Thickness, Optimization Criteria (i.e. customer defined strategy), overall Width, Cut Line Width, Cut Length, Cut Status (to cut or not), Crop Area, Crop Weight, etc. Other parameters can also be displayed based on customer configuration details. The head and tail images have been color enhanced to illustrate relative thermal variations over the surfaces. This enhancement is based on correlating camera pixel values to the color spectrum and we assume a linear relationship between the pixel value and the defined color spectrum.
We are specialists in process optimization. As manufacturer of industrial measurement and control systems for steel mill applications throughout the world we've collected a large number of experiences in the hot metals making activities. We have been successful providing solutions to rolling mill customers for 20+ years. In our group, many of our staff members have 30 - 40 years of experience in this industry.
Bar analytic software is the best solution to operate with maximum profit. Once the data has been acquired with vision technologies, the system will be able to produce a complete dossier of the bar / slab / strip with important information deriving from calculations and statistics. Width gauge will determine the width of the measured part. Together with the Crop Optimization software and Shear Control System it will reduce/manage the Crop Loss.
The Stereoscopic Width Gauge is a precision measurement device used to determine the width of sheet or strip products during rolling. This unit is a vision-based, noncontact measurement system, capable of providing real-time width measurements with typical accuracy of within +/- 0.5 mm of the true width. The Width Gauge determines width by imaging the edges of the strip within the focal depth of the system. The stereoscopic design feature allows for accurate width measurement even if the strip is moving up or down within the measurement area.
